The second and deciding day was broken into separate four-ball and singles events. At the halfway point, Team USA held a six-point lead thanks to wins from the pairs of J.R. Smith/Golden Tate, Ben Roethlisberger/Michael Phelps and Robbie Gould/Andrew Whitworth.

With 12 singles matchup, the window for a comeback remained open for Team ROTW. Australian Open champion Ash Barty did her part to help eat into Team USA’s deficit. But the U.S. notched the first singles win as Roethlisberger took down Tottenham Hotspur star Harry Kane. That foreshadowed a dominant showing by the host squad.

Phelps was involved in perhaps the most star-studded clash. He was 1-up on super middleweight boxing champion Canelo Alvarez.

Having conquered the pool, perhaps the 23-time Olympic gold medalist should look to get his tour card after going unbeaten over the two days.

Roethlisberger, who sports a 4 handicap, was also excellent at Liberty National. Now that he’s retired, there’s likely a lot more golf ahead for the former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback.

“I wanted to let Ben know how grateful I am. He signed a card for my son today while at the golf event in New Jersey.” — David Wertz.

Looking forward to playing in the ‘Icons Series‘ at the Liberty National Golf Club in Jersey City, NJ later this week. But we’d like you to come & show us some support. — Ben.

Today we are celebrating the life of one of the most amazing people that God ever put on this great earth. Audrey Roethlisberger, my grandmother, went home to be with the Lord after almost 99 years. GG, you will be missed. Thank you for being a role model for us all. We love you! — Ben.
